00:17:42.906 --> 00:17:46.844
Place of pride like i am a i am a good person.
00:17:46.977 --> 00:17:47.311
A good person. i'm a quality man.
00:17:47.444 --> 00:17:49.647
I'm a quality man. and i think that there's
00:17:49.780 --> 00:17:50.414
And i think that there's certainly a connection that
00:17:50.547 --> 00:17:51.115
Certainly a connection that we're seeing and it's something
00:17:51.248 --> 00:17:51.882
We're seeing and it's something that's going expand even beyond
00:17:52.016 --> 00:17:53.884
That's going expand even beyond that that generation.
00:17:54.018 --> 00:17:54.451
That that generation. >> well, what would you say in
00:17:54.585 --> 00:17:57.254
>> well, what would you say in the last segment?
00:17:57.388 --> 00:17:57.788
The last segment? >> a huge percentage over a
00:17:57.921 --> 00:18:00.557
>> a huge percentage over a third of americans are saying
00:18:00.691 --> 00:18:01.292
Third of americans are saying that somehow the bible is a
00:18:01.425 --> 00:18:04.595
That somehow the bible is a weapon of oppression that
00:18:04.728 --> 00:18:05.262
Weapon of oppression that that's built to oppress people?
00:18:05.396 --> 00:18:08.399
That's built to oppress people? yeah, i think that's something
00:18:08.532 --> 00:18:09.133
Yeah, i think that's something that we've allowed the the
00:18:09.266 --> 00:18:11.802
That we've allowed the the liberal ideology in america has
00:18:11.935 --> 00:18:15.472
Liberal ideology in america has opened the way for humanism and
00:18:15.606 --> 00:18:16.206
Opened the way for humanism and hedonism.
00:18:16.340 --> 00:18:16.573
Hedonism. i find it interesting that paul
00:18:16.707 --> 00:18:19.910
I find it interesting that paul when he describes describes
00:18:20.044 --> 00:18:20.577
When he describes describes perilous times in the last.
00:18:20.711 --> 00:18:23.380
Perilous times in the last. the first quality he says is
00:18:23.514 --> 00:18:24.114
The first quality he says is that men are going to be lovers
00:18:24.248 --> 00:18:24.982
That men are going to be lovers of themselves.
00:18:25.115 --> 00:18:27.217
Of themselves. and so we're seeing we're
00:18:27.351 --> 00:18:27.985
And so we're seeing we're seeing that in society right
00:18:28.118 --> 00:18:28.686
Seeing that in society right now.
00:18:28.819 --> 00:18:28.952
Now. when we talk about faith in
00:18:29.086 --> 00:18:31.188
When we talk about faith in god, trust in god, we've got to
00:18:31.322 --> 00:18:31.955
God, trust in god, we've got to get our eyes off ourselves and
00:18:32.089 --> 00:18:35.426
Get our eyes off ourselves and turn our eyes back to the back
00:18:35.559 --> 00:18:36.193
Turn our eyes back to the back to the lord during this time.
00:18:36.327 --> 00:18:36.927
To the lord during this time. >> we've definitely i mean we
00:18:37.061 --> 00:18:39.563
>> we've definitely i mean we even joke about it now the
00:18:39.697 --> 00:18:40.297
Even joke about it now the selfie that it just seems to be
00:18:40.431 --> 00:18:42.966
Selfie that it just seems to be permeating the culture on
00:18:43.100 --> 00:18:46.036
Permeating the culture on social media.
00:18:46.170 --> 00:18:46.470
Social media. are we being subjected to
00:18:46.603 --> 00:18:47.137
Are we being subjected to algorithms that are designed to
00:18:47.271 --> 00:18:50.674
Algorithms that are designed to divide us?
00:18:50.808 --> 00:18:51.041
Divide us? we are.
00:18:51.175 --> 00:18:51.375
We are. yeah.
00:18:51.508 --> 00:18:51.675
Yeah. that's something that's
00:18:51.809 --> 00:18:53.777
That's something that's absolutely a part of social
00:18:53.911 --> 00:18:54.478
Absolutely a part of social media and digital media.
00:18:54.611 --> 00:18:55.112
Media and digital media. we need be aware of that.
00:18:55.245 --> 00:18:58.415
We need be aware of that. i think that part of the the
00:18:58.549 --> 00:19:01.919
I think that part of the the awakening that's happening
00:19:02.052 --> 00:19:02.586
Awakening that's happening right now is that we're
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:03.220
Right now is that we're exhausted from relationships
00:19:03.354 --> 00:19:05.656
Exhausted from relationships that lack personality and human
00:19:05.789 --> 00:19:06.390
That lack personality and human interaction.
00:19:06.523 --> 00:19:09.793
Interaction. so i even think that there is a
00:19:09.927 --> 00:19:10.728
So i even think that there is a departure from some of that to
00:19:10.861 --> 00:19:11.528
Departure from some of that to come back to meetings.
00:19:11.662 --> 00:19:13.230
Come back to meetings. i think churches statistically
00:19:13.364 --> 00:19:13.964
I think churches statistically are starting to grow and see an
00:19:14.098 --> 00:19:17.267
Are starting to grow and see an uptick in attendance right now
00:19:17.401 --> 00:19:18.001
Uptick in attendance right now because simply exhausted from
00:19:18.135 --> 00:19:20.904
Because simply exhausted from the the digital pressures that
00:19:21.038 --> 00:19:21.638
The the digital pressures that we've experiencing.
00:19:21.772 --> 00:19:24.742
We've experiencing. so that's a huge opportunity
00:19:24.875 --> 00:19:25.476
So that's a huge opportunity right now for us to communicate
00:19:25.609 --> 00:19:28.379
Right now for us to communicate gospel and for us to see an
00:19:28.512 --> 00:19:29.446
Gospel and for us to see an opportunity for a greater
00:19:29.580 --> 00:19:32.916
Opportunity for a greater revival during this time we've
00:19:33.050 --> 00:19:33.684
Revival during this time we've got to have a different set of
00:19:33.817 --> 00:19:34.451
Got to have a different set of eyes our our nation was in this
00:19:34.585 --> 00:19:36.553
Eyes our our nation was in this position before when i talk
00:19:36.687 --> 00:19:37.254
Position before when i talk about in god we trust our
00:19:37.388 --> 00:19:40.190
About in god we trust our nation was in this position
00:19:40.324 --> 00:19:40.891
Nation was in this position before during the civil war and
00:19:41.024 --> 00:19:41.625
Before during the civil war and it was a situation where it
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:44.128
It was a situation where it seemed to be hopeless and yet a
00:19:44.261 --> 00:19:47.698
Seemed to be hopeless and yet a preacher speaking with
00:19:47.831 --> 00:19:48.298
Preacher speaking with politicians that first began to
00:19:48.432 --> 00:19:50.768
Politicians that first began to speak this language during the
00:19:50.901 --> 00:19:51.535
Speak this language during the civil war that things are so
00:19:51.668 --> 00:19:53.904
Civil war that things are so our nation's future is in
00:19:54.037 --> 00:19:54.605
Our nation's future is in jeopardy.
00:19:54.738 --> 00:19:54.972
Jeopardy. we have to turn to faith in god
00:19:55.105 --> 00:19:58.542
We have to turn to faith in god and it was in 1956 or so that
00:19:58.675 --> 00:20:01.612
And it was in 1956 or so that eisenhower actually signed that
00:20:01.745 --> 00:20:02.379
Eisenhower actually signed that into led legislation for to
00:20:02.513 --> 00:20:05.182
Into led legislation for to become our nation's official
00:20:05.315 --> 00:20:05.883
Become our nation's official motto.
00:20:06.016 --> 00:20:06.183
Motto. this was a huge opportunity for
00:20:06.316 --> 00:20:06.917
This was a huge opportunity for us communicate god in the
00:20:07.050 --> 00:20:09.653
Us communicate god in the kingdom of god.
00:20:09.787 --> 00:20:10.154
Kingdom of god. and i share sometimes that if
00:20:10.287 --> 00:20:13.457
And i share sometimes that if jesus was really dependent upon
00:20:13.590 --> 00:20:14.224
Jesus was really dependent upon human government in the systems
00:20:14.358 --> 00:20:17.795
Human government in the systems that we live today, the first
00:20:17.928 --> 00:20:18.529
That we live today, the first thing he would have done was to
00:20:18.662 --> 00:20:19.329
Thing he would have done was to get would been to get caesar
00:20:19.463 --> 00:20:21.165
Get would been to get caesar king herod and pontius pilot
00:20:21.298 --> 00:20:21.832
King herod and pontius pilot saved and filled a holy spirit
00:20:21.965 --> 00:20:24.968
Saved and filled a holy spirit to get them on his team but he
00:20:25.102 --> 00:20:25.836
To get them on his team but he did not.
00:20:25.969 --> 00:20:26.203
Did not. >> he my kingdom is not of this
00:20:26.336 --> 00:20:29.239
>> he my kingdom is not of this world.
00:20:29.373 --> 00:20:29.540
World. and we have to remind now that
00:20:29.673 --> 00:20:32.810
And we have to remind now that god's kingdom his involvement
00:20:32.943 --> 00:20:33.510
God's kingdom his involvement in society is not going to come
00:20:33.644 --> 00:20:36.413
In society is not going to come through the the systems that we
00:20:36.547 --> 00:20:37.181
Through the the systems that we put in place is only through
00:20:37.314 --> 00:20:37.915
Put in place is only through the gospel of our lord jesus
00:20:38.048 --> 00:20:40.517
The gospel of our lord jesus christ the gospel of the
00:20:40.651 --> 00:20:41.151
Christ the gospel of the kingdom and this gospel of the
00:20:41.285 --> 00:20:43.420
Kingdom and this gospel of the must be preached as a witness
00:20:43.554 --> 00:20:44.188
Must be preached as a witness to all nations, all ethnicities
00:20:44.321 --> 00:20:48.158
To all nations, all ethnicities .
00:20:48.292 --> 00:20:48.392
. and then the end will come.
00:20:48.525 --> 00:20:49.092
And then the end will come. the gospel is the only hope for
00:20:49.226 --> 00:20:49.993
The gospel is the only hope for our nation right now and we
00:20:50.127 --> 00:20:52.029
Our nation right now and we need to be dedicated to that.
00:20:52.162 --> 00:20:52.763
Need to be dedicated to that. the thing that's really been
00:20:52.896 --> 00:20:55.499
The thing that's really been gripping my heart is can we
00:20:55.632 --> 00:20:56.300
Gripping my heart is can we finish the great commission?
00:20:56.433 --> 00:20:59.570
Finish the great commission? yeah.
00:20:59.703 --> 00:20:59.870
Yeah. can we do it in our generation
00:21:00.003 --> 00:21:00.771
Can we do it in our generation and?
00:21:00.904 --> 00:21:03.207
And? you know, night comes when no
00:21:03.340 --> 00:21:03.974
You know, night comes when no one can work.
00:21:04.107 --> 00:21:04.408
One can work. i'm seeing nation after nation
00:21:04.541 --> 00:21:06.944
I'm seeing nation after nation pass these really restrictive
00:21:07.077 --> 00:21:07.644
Pass these really restrictive laws whether it's india anti
00:21:07.778 --> 00:21:11.548
Laws whether it's india anti conversion law in china you
00:21:11.682 --> 00:21:14.685
Conversion law in china you can't go on digital media
00:21:14.818 --> 00:21:15.352
Can't go on digital media anymore or the christian
00:21:15.486 --> 00:21:15.986
Anymore or the christian message you know these are very
00:21:16.119 --> 00:21:18.722
Message you know these are very restrictive cultures and now
00:21:18.856 --> 00:21:21.692
Restrictive cultures and now more than ever we need to that
00:21:21.825 --> 00:21:24.661
More than ever we need to that gospel out okay what do you say
00:21:24.795 --> 00:21:29.032
Gospel out okay what do you say to people that are seeking
00:21:29.166 --> 00:21:29.766
To people that are seeking political solutions to the
00:21:29.900 --> 00:21:32.636
Political solutions to the troubles in america today?
00:21:32.769 --> 00:21:33.303
Troubles in america today? >> i would them again that the
00:21:33.437 --> 00:21:36.039
>> i would them again that the jesus is kingdom is of the
00:21:36.173 --> 00:21:39.810
Jesus is kingdom is of the world and the church has to
00:21:39.943 --> 00:21:40.511
World and the church has to preach that message.
00:21:40.644 --> 00:21:41.078
Preach that message. we have to be that of course
00:21:41.211 --> 00:21:43.680
We have to be that of course proverbs 29 to tells us that
00:21:43.814 --> 00:21:46.550
Proverbs 29 to tells us that when the righteous around
00:21:46.683 --> 00:21:47.184
When the righteous around authority of the people rejoice
00:21:47.317 --> 00:21:49.620
Authority of the people rejoice but we're in a position right
00:21:49.753 --> 00:21:50.420
But we're in a position right now that i don't even know if
00:21:50.554 --> 00:21:51.188
Now that i don't even know if we know what it means to be
00:21:51.321 --> 00:21:51.922
We know what it means to be righteous and everybody thinks
00:21:52.055 --> 00:21:53.991
Righteous and everybody thinks that they're righteous in doing
00:21:54.124 --> 00:21:54.725
That they're righteous in doing what is right in their own eyes
00:21:54.858 --> 00:21:56.960
What is right in their own eyes .
00:21:57.094 --> 00:21:57.194
. we have to understand that god
00:21:57.327 --> 00:21:57.995
We have to understand that god is neither democrat nor
00:21:58.128 --> 00:21:58.595
Is neither democrat nor republican.
00:21:58.729 --> 00:22:01.632
Republican. i'm reminded of hebrews 1226
00:22:01.765 --> 00:22:04.167
I'm reminded of hebrews 1226 those kinds of passages when
00:22:04.301 --> 00:22:04.902
Those kinds of passages when even their god says i will
00:22:05.035 --> 00:22:08.071
Even their god says i will shake everything that can be
00:22:08.205 --> 00:22:08.805
Shake everything that can be shaken so that only the things
00:22:08.939 --> 00:22:09.573
Shaken so that only the things that cannot be shaken will
00:22:09.706 --> 00:22:12.543
That cannot be shaken will remain.
00:22:12.676 --> 00:22:12.876
Remain. but we have received the
00:22:13.010 --> 00:22:13.544
But we have received the kingdom of god let receive
00:22:13.677 --> 00:22:16.046
Kingdom of god let receive grace that we can serve god
00:22:16.179 --> 00:22:16.747
Grace that we can serve god acceptably would represent
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:19.550
Acceptably would represent fear.
00:22:19.683 --> 00:22:19.850
Fear. that's the message we've got to
00:22:19.983 --> 00:22:20.617
That's the message we've got to communicate to remember that
00:22:20.751 --> 00:22:21.351
Communicate to remember that god kingdom is not of this
00:22:21.485 --> 00:22:24.087
God kingdom is not of this world.
00:22:24.221 --> 00:22:24.388
World. again, jesus did not need
00:22:24.521 --> 00:22:26.990
Again, jesus did not need caesar herod and pontius pilate
00:22:27.124 --> 00:22:27.724
Caesar herod and pontius pilate on his team advance his
00:22:27.858 --> 00:22:30.761
On his team advance his kingdom.
00:22:30.894 --> 00:22:31.094
Kingdom. he was not here to restore the
00:22:31.228 --> 00:22:31.962
He was not here to restore the hasmonean dynasty where he came
00:22:32.095 --> 00:22:35.732
Hasmonean dynasty where he came to preach the kingdom of god
00:22:35.866 --> 00:22:36.433
To preach the kingdom of god that he says the kingdom within
00:22:36.567 --> 00:22:39.436
That he says the kingdom within you luke 17 the kingdom starts
00:22:39.570 --> 00:22:40.203
You luke 17 the kingdom starts in the hearts of people.
00:22:40.337 --> 00:22:40.837
In the hearts of people. >> you know i'll go back to
00:22:40.971 --> 00:22:43.840
>> you know i'll go back to abraham lincoln.
00:22:43.974 --> 00:22:44.341
Abraham lincoln. >> you know he went around
00:22:44.474 --> 00:22:47.344
>> you know he went around state legislatures in the
00:22:47.477 --> 00:22:48.011
State legislatures in the states who voted for him.
00:22:48.145 --> 00:22:48.645
States who voted for him. he didn't want a single elector
00:22:48.779 --> 00:22:51.014
He didn't want a single elector in the south they knew he was
00:22:51.148 --> 00:22:54.451
In the south they knew he was going to take on slavery and.
00:22:54.585 --> 00:22:57.754

As a writing surface. it's not beautifully done.
00:29:02.373 --> 00:29:02.873
It's not beautifully done. it's done quickly.
00:29:03.007 --> 00:29:03.407
It's done quickly. why you do this on beautiful
00:29:03.541 --> 00:29:06.644
Why you do this on beautiful copper?
00:29:06.777 --> 00:29:06.977
Copper? the only reason to write on
00:29:07.111 --> 00:29:09.747
The only reason to write on copper is you're thinking of
00:29:09.880 --> 00:29:10.481
Copper is you're thinking of long preservation because
00:29:10.614 --> 00:29:11.115
Long preservation because copper can withstand fires.
00:29:11.248 --> 00:29:17.321
Copper can withstand fires. some of the hiding places
00:29:17.455 --> 00:29:18.022
Some of the hiding places listed in the scroll are easy
00:29:18.155 --> 00:29:18.756
Listed in the scroll are easy to find a modern map like
00:29:18.889 --> 00:29:21.892
To find a modern map like jericho the valley of a core
00:29:22.026 --> 00:29:25.463
Jericho the valley of a core and mount gerizim.
00:29:25.596 --> 00:29:25.996
And mount gerizim. others are more cryptic like
00:29:26.130 --> 00:29:29.567
Others are more cryptic like solomon's canal which contains
00:29:29.700 --> 00:29:30.301
Solomon's canal which contains a stash of silver a well in
00:29:30.434 --> 00:29:33.571
A stash of silver a well in middleham where garments for
00:29:33.704 --> 00:29:34.271
Middleham where garments for the high priests were hidden or
00:29:34.405 --> 00:29:37.675
The high priests were hidden or matthias courtyard where more
00:29:37.808 --> 00:29:40.111
Matthias courtyard where more than 600 gold and silver temple
00:29:40.244 --> 00:29:40.878
Than 600 gold and silver temple vessels were buried.
00:29:41.011 --> 00:29:44.048
Vessels were buried. the instructions on the scrolls
00:29:44.181 --> 00:29:44.849
The instructions on the scrolls is like a like a kids treasure
00:29:44.982 --> 00:29:48.152
Is like a like a kids treasure map in a way they're talking
00:29:48.285 --> 00:29:48.953
Map in a way they're talking about caves, they're talking
00:29:49.086 --> 00:29:49.653
About caves, they're talking about tombs, about aqueducts
00:29:49.787 --> 00:29:52.556
About tombs, about aqueducts and pools and other things that
00:29:52.690 --> 00:29:53.324
And pools and other things that were known to at the time
00:29:53.457 --> 00:29:55.993
Were known to at the time probably with aliases of names
00:29:56.127 --> 00:29:59.363
Probably with aliases of names applied to these places so that
00:29:59.497 --> 00:30:02.933
Applied to these places so that only those people who are part
00:30:03.067 --> 00:30:03.767
Only those people who are part of the inner circle would know
00:30:03.901 --> 00:30:04.602
Of the inner circle would know where go how many steps to go
00:30:04.735 --> 00:30:07.705
Where go how many steps to go away and where to dig and find
00:30:07.838 --> 00:30:08.639
Away and where to dig and find the treasure that was buried in
00:30:08.772 --> 00:30:11.509
The treasure that was buried in that spot.
00:30:11.642 --> 00:30:11.876
That spot. >> it assumes whoever is
00:30:12.009 --> 00:30:15.212
>> it assumes whoever is finding the scroll will have
00:30:15.346 --> 00:30:15.946
Finding the scroll will have some awareness of places that
00:30:16.080 --> 00:30:19.550
Some awareness of places that have long been forgotten.
00:30:19.683 --> 00:30:20.217
Have long been forgotten. that's a problem.
00:30:20.351 --> 00:30:23.120

Somewhere. somewhere?
00:30:30.928 --> 00:30:31.162
Somewhere? maybe most of it has been found
00:30:31.295 --> 00:30:33.998
Maybe most of it has been found at different times by
00:30:34.131 --> 00:30:34.565
At different times by opportunists but fun that
00:30:34.698 --> 00:30:38.068
Opportunists but fun that anyone looking for it today is
00:30:38.202 --> 00:30:41.038
Anyone looking for it today is about 2000 years too late.
00:30:41.172 --> 00:30:41.705
About 2000 years too late. >> in my mind most if not all
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:44.975

We answer your email shonda asks i was told once by someone

Asks i was told once by someone at my church that god does
00:48:24.080 --> 00:48:24.680
At my church that god does forgive suicide.
00:48:24.814 --> 00:48:27.750
Forgive suicide. i don't see how that can be
00:48:27.884 --> 00:48:28.618
I don't see how that can be because if that were true
00:48:28.751 --> 00:48:29.318
Because if that were true everyone would take the easy
00:48:29.452 --> 00:48:31.788

Way out. what is your viewpoint from a
00:48:32.288 --> 00:48:32.889
What is your viewpoint from a biblical standpoint?
00:48:33.022 --> 00:48:35.725
Biblical standpoint? the bible promises and it's
00:48:35.858 --> 00:48:38.694
The bible promises and it's one of the great promises i
00:48:38.828 --> 00:48:39.362
One of the great promises i will fulfill all of your days.
00:48:39.495 --> 00:48:40.096
Will fulfill all of your days. it was considered in the old
00:48:40.229 --> 00:48:43.466
It was considered in the old testament particularly that you
00:48:43.599 --> 00:48:44.233
Testament particularly that you know your life could be cut
00:48:44.367 --> 00:48:44.934
Know your life could be cut short and if it was it meant
00:48:45.067 --> 00:48:47.403
Short and if it was it meant you didn't fulfill the destiny
00:48:47.537 --> 00:48:50.907
You didn't fulfill the destiny that god had for you.
00:48:51.040 --> 00:48:51.474
That god had for you. and so the promise i will
00:48:51.607 --> 00:48:54.377

Times get hard and life can come at you really hard and if

Come at you really hard and if things get difficult.
00:49:01.617 --> 00:49:02.051
Things get difficult. the issue is as a believer are

The issue is as a believer are you going to continue to walk

You going to continue to walk through the valley of the

Place. >> now in christian history if

You committed suicide it used be that you could not be buried
00:49:23.539 --> 00:49:24.307
Be that you could not be buried on church land.
00:49:24.440 --> 00:49:24.774
On church land. you were considered you
00:49:26.876 --> 00:49:27.743
You were considered you violated of the ten
00:49:27.877 --> 00:49:31.314
Violated of the ten commandments thou shalt not

Commandments thou shalt not kill and you killed and
00:49:32.114 --> 00:49:35.117
Kill and you killed and therefore you were doomed.

The view. anyone does that is in saying
00:49:39.755 --> 00:49:43.159
Anyone does that is in saying that they have lost their
00:49:43.292 --> 00:49:46.696

Work through. they've been blinded and in
00:49:51.100 --> 00:49:54.203
They've been blinded and in that god is able to forgive
00:49:54.337 --> 00:49:54.904
That god is able to forgive them even a ten commandment
00:49:55.037 --> 00:49:57.707
Them even a ten commandment violation at the moment of
00:49:57.840 --> 00:49:58.474
